Default Storing Half Used Keg
I am having a couple people over this weekend and I have half of a 5 Gallon keg of Brooklyn Ale left, but I am going to pick up a full keg of Sunset Wheat today and I was wondering if I can untap the Brooklyn and store it in my other fridge.... Probably keep the Ale stored for 2 or 3 weeks (these people don't like this Ale)

What steps do I need to take ? Bleed the gas of the keg first or leave the Co2 in there??

Well I already picked it up ... it wouldn't in there together as I suspected...
So I just removed the pony keg and stuck it in the 2nd fridge for storage.

Leave the co2 in it and keep it cold. Then storage time will be the only factor in how long it will keep.

Edit: And were anyone coming over to my house, they had best like what i have on tap else bring their own. Unless I had something really good I didn't want to share...
